Kids for a Quid tomorrow

For U11s it appears.

Did I miss this being advertised until just now?

Makes sense during half term but as ever the best marketeers for the club are the fans.

    Oh dear.... Another game where a guy brings his 6 kids and expects me to move from my seat to accommodate his flock.

    Another email to ze cloob...

    "Ffs, for £1 or not i do not need another kid!"
  • For any youngsters taken to the Valley today Childline's number is 0800 1111
    Inflicting this torture on the unwitting or unwilling is beneath contempt, whatever the price.

    The prematch guff I read on OS marked this fixture as "...the final kids for £1 fixture this season..." which seemed odd wording at the time.
    If roly's on the way out, why would he care about future pricing? If he can't get rid surely he'd want to keep all options open for suckering mugs into coughing up any coin for admission to his necrotic pantomime? £1 a ticket will soon look like ambitious pricing for the best seats in the stadium, any age.

    Hope it's not too cold in SE7 today and remember kids - no spending money on anything while you're there, Santa's keeping tabs and if you give that septuagenarian swindler any money at all you can kiss goodbye to Christmas 2018, don't say you weren't warned.

    So, you advertise a promotion as late as possible and change the rules that normally apply without advertising the fact.

    Once the kids are at The Valley, you charge them the normal rate 'cos they are over 10 years old as in the eyes of Charlton they are adults. Therefore pissing off your customers.

    Bugger me, who came up with this shite?

    Daisy may have left the building but there are still enough fuckwits at Charlton to make up for her absence!

    Guidelines stipulate any child taller than our Tone will pay adult price, so 10 it must be! ;)

    Bear in mind since the introduction of the auto turnstiles everyone is an under 11. I know someone in his early forties that’s been in to the cupboard end on an under 11s season ticket and never had a single issue.

    The NWQ was as empty as I’ve ever seen it and the NEQ was a lot less populated than for the Gills game.

    Kid for a quid looked a complete non-event to me

    On the bright side at least youngsters have learnt the value of a pound note!

    I was under 11 for The Coventry protest game after being a free ticket outside when on the demo. No time to shave my beard off.

    There were some young children around me, and afterwards the club shop looked pretty busy, but I imagine that our turgid football isn't a great incentive
